If your divorce decree stated that your ex husband is responsible for the car payment will that hold in court if the vehicle is repossessed?

It will hold up in court BUT that will not stop the repossession. The lending company does not and should not care where the money comes from. They made a loan in good faith and they expect to be repaid the same way. If you can afford to keep the payments up to date you can sue your ex for the payments you make. Or have your lawyer file a comtempt motion to compel your ex to pay. Good Luck!


If someone made payments to purchase vehicle and to pay remainder of balance when picking up the vehicle then changes mind is there a refund owed on payments?

No. You are not entitled to a refund if you made payments toward the purchase of a vehicle. In truth, if you signed a contract to purchase the vehicle, that vehicle is now secondary to the contract, you could still be held responsible for the balance of the loan, whether or not you still have the vehicle.


How do you get a vehicle back from your ex-husband if it is still in your name and its payments are not being made?

If its in your name (and the car was NOT awarded to him in the divorce decree) you could go to the police and report it stolen. If in your divorce decree it says he's supposed to pay for the car then you could take him to court because it will show up on YOUR credit if he's not paying.

My ex wife was supposed to take over payments on her car in our divorce but now is having the car repossessed and it's still in my name Can the loan company garnish my wages?

Yes they can because right now you show as being the responsible party. You will either need to go to court and have the divorce decree upheld or have the vehicle put solely in her name.


What can be done to you in Florida if you are the cosigner on a vehicle that is up for repossession but your husband is in possession of the vehicle and they cannot find it?

They will come to you for the money if they can't find him. It will be on your credit as a repo as well. As a co-signer, you sign that you will take over payments if the signer fails to make the payments.


If your ex-husband and you agreed that you would keep the new vehicle and his name off the loan will a creditor do this with a divorce decree?

No. A divorce decree has no legal status when it pertains to the lender's agreement. The party that wishes to keep the vehicle will need to refinance it in their name only.
